As one of the main functions of WordPreciousss is coming in WordPress 2.7 (allowing template files in Child Themes), I’ve decided to break the plugin up into smaller plugins and one theme (to rule them all (??)).

The plugin has a lot of code that easily can be redone to smaller plugins; you can have the global templates plugins, precious skinner, precious theme switcher.

So I will discontinue to develop WordPreciousss in it’s current state, and I will probably move everything to it’s own site on wordpreciousss.org.

But feel free to download the current version to teach yourself to play with Child Themes.

The Weekly Digest is a bit late this week as I had a rather tight schedule past weekend and last couple of days. The Weekly Digest usually comes out on Sundays, when there has been any updates on WangenWeb, so if you don’t want to subscribe to all posts, feel free to subscribe to the Weekly Digest.

I really hope I’ve fixed all security issues with the plugin this time, and I have to admit that if there is any other issues, I do currently not have the knowledge to fix it. But the plugin is more secure now than what it used to be.

And a special thanks to Pascal Birchler for reporting the security problem.

Update Aug. 17: The version 1.6.2d on WordPress’ Plugin Directory is the same as this one (1.6.2b), - I messed up when updating the plugin as I’m still learning to use SubVersion.

And just like other template files the default loop templates (located in /templates/precious/loops/) can be overridden in a theme or a skin, but in themes they need to be located in a subdirectory called /loopsWordPreciousss’ loop templates continued
